uli2000 posted:My pro tier tip on the Baby Belles: Before consuming, leave them out unrefridgerated for a bit to come up to room termp. I always ate them straight out of the fridge and while good, they were kinda bland. One day, coming home from church, we missed them while we were putting perishibles in the coolers (I live almost 4 hours from church, gotta bring the coolers and the insulated bags) and found them in the blessed box with the non perishable items. I decided to open one up to make sure it was ok. I was amazed at the creamy texture and flavor after they came to room temp. Now when we get them Ill pull them out of the fridge for an hour or so before eating them. You are a true disciple, friend.

Nah they're a bit different: The main problem is the chicken is super dry, and nothing about the kit is that good or flavorful. It would be serviceable for a last minute dinner if they fixed the meat.

Holy poo poo. I have been informed that you can buy the churros frozen from the Costco food court and fry them at home. This is a party revelation. Chocolate and/or cinnamon-sugar dipped churros, fresh? Yes please.

We like those chicken tacos for a real quick lazy meal. Sometimes we don’t even bother warming the chicken because we are swine

I post this site occasionally but if you're looking for blackout curtains, here's a guide: https://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-blackout-curtains/ Also I am wearing flannel, a cotton Pima shirt, and a camisole all from Costco today. Fall in the PNW! (jeans, socks, shoes all came from REI)

The Wirecutter is a good guide for how to get something at twice the price that works at most 10% better than whatever Costco sells you.

Wirecutter suggests Costco stuff all the time though. They even have a dedicated "what to get at Costco" guide. https://thewirecutter.com/blog/everything-wirecutter-recommends-at-costco/

Wirecutter really is "What should you tell your parents/siblings to get so they'll at least have a moderate-quality thing when you inevitably have to fix it" type of thing.

Fallom posted:Sherpa sweatshirt has returned I’ve gone through a lot of jackets here in norcal trying to find one that isn’t too warm when the sun is out, but is insulated enough when it’s foggy or raining. My current jacket is exactly what you described- it stops wind but doesn’t make me sweat through my button down dress shirt. Only the body has any insulation, and it has a hood for when it goes from 70 to 40 which it does randomly

Taima posted:San Diego costco is a haven of delicious beer, unfortunately by the time they get up here to the bay area, most beers are usually pretty old, which means you basically can't buy IPAs from Costco here. Wasn't one of the literal design goals of IPA that it could survive long-rear end trips from Britain to, like, India?

I think that's not the case with modern IPAs now aday. They tend to go uhhh bad after a certain point. Now if we were talking bout barrel aged stouts or barley wines...

Everyone on earth drinks west coast IPAs on the east coast with no issues, they're certainly not undrinkable after a few hours in a truck from san diego to the bay!

Welcome to the land of milk and IPAs. Our local church in Denver Metro started carrying beer after a law change this year. A full isle of local and other domestic crafts and macros. It's very nice. I did have to choose whether or not I wanted a true local in Upslope or Breckenridge owned by Anheuser and I went for Breck this time. I still feel kinda lovely about it.

I mean, I'm not anti-IPA, they've replaced almost everything else in my summer rotation. I just think they should be drinkable rather than OVER 9000 IBU bitterfests?

Picked up some Tilamook mint chocolate ice cream sandwiches today, and they are fantastic. Close second to the peppermint they had around Christmas, and a bit better than the chocolate ones. Wish they stocked these more regularly, but it's probably for the best they don't.

Yeah it's a lot of this, or when my coworkers are telling me they're looking for the best something or other and they picked the "Amazon choice" or whatever popped up first on Google. I've gotten good recommendations from Wirecutter and bad ones, but it's a decent jumping off point. Their towel recommendations were crap in the past, especially for the price point.

Yall are a bad influence, I find myself off work early and drop a bill. I got new fire extinguishers for the trucks since I used one this weekend, and some Renegade beer brewed local. Plus the good snow brushes are back! I bought my truck in the spring and I was too late to get a good one anywhere.

The only beer I have ever felt is consistently spoiled is Stella Artois it seems like a 50/50 chance if it just is utterly terrible and am not sure if its the green bottles or it being imported.

Spoken like a man who drinks skunked-rear end IPAs on the regular, but by all means explain to me, someone who has been drinking IPAs and been involved with those brewing them for 15+ years, how IPAs work. Washout posted:Dude just buy a roteressire and shred it and a container of salsa and a pack of beans and a block of cheese and then make 20 tacos yourself. I feel you man but in my extremely personal opinion, chicken is not a great meat for tacos. I usually put together a chili verde with a nice pork shoulder, but there are a bunch of ways to go about it. Pastor, lengua, chile verde, carne asada. All superior choices imo.
